What a great start to the new years.

Defected this morning for:

- EBC

- Non Standard Air Filter (covered)

Classed as "Major Defect".

First Officer pulled me over, me driving normally not making a noise, requested license and jump out then said to pop my bonnet. He looked around found the boost solenoid but wasnt too sure, saw the airbox told me to take it off so he could see the air filter but the pod filter/airbox is fitted down tightly cant remove without tools. He calls in for a second Officer, guess who - Officer Neil! He came and looked into the engine bay straight away saw the boost solenoid and said theres a controller somewhere in the cabin - that was it. He said the air filter is fine aslong as its mounted securely but the first Officer defected it for being non standard air filter and being covered.

Thats F@$KED UP!!! if i were you i would remove the EBC and take it to a local cop shop (not the Port Adelaide one) and tell them about the air filter and they may take the defect off for you, and try to do it today if you can, its worth a try.

Sorry to hear VU your car is seriously clean, goes to show it doesn't matter what condish your car is in only needs to be an import. What size boost solenoid are you running Dual Stage Blitz? Officer Neil strikes again what a legend :(

Officer Neil was the nice one out of the two. The other guy was a good cop too but I think he'd already made up his mind to defect as soon as he saw the Skyline drive past to be calling in Officer Neil to confirm what to defect.

I know of a bloke running a Gizzmo IBC EBC and the actuator is quite compact and easy to put in an appropriate area out of the way. I will keep my thoughts on officers pulling people over for no good reason to myself me thinks.

I was going fishing around 6am this morn. on grand junction. see a cop come out of hanson. i turn of down a street. I come back out and notice this officer has done a U turn.

He saw me from 34534 kms away.

Anyway he was on the other side of the road this time and just looked at me and kept going.

that SUCKS vu, seriously. maybe since the cops dont defect dogshit looking 1980's cars with black smoke popping out at random times we should follow the UK wank factor of applying the "rat-look" to our cars...

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
